This really isn't rocket science. The OP saw that his neighbour had very little space to the front or rear of their car and getting out of the space would be tricky. The neighbour presumably hit the OP's car. So the OP was probably either directly in front or directly behind the neighbour. So the OP could have probably moved a few cm forward or backward so the neighbour could get out easily. Alternatively the OP could have moved elsewhere. It's the sort of thing you need to do to avoid collisions. Alternatively just wait for the inevitable accident to happen and tell the insurers you are not to blame and whinge that even though you aren't to blame your insurance has gone up.0

Just to clarify, they parked behind me. I could move the car temporarily if they knocked and asked but not permanently as I would block the other neighbour. This is totally their fault.0

Maybe it's a bit like playing chess. I am always thinking ahead. Anticipating what the next move will be. Others maybe can't do that.0

with no consideration for how one of your neighbours may park in the future.
@fred246 will now tell you the Lottery numbers for Saturday.
Don't bother buying a ticket as the number will be the wrong ones though.1
